LITTLEJOHN’S CELL PHONE TRAIL

Detectives learned through cell phone tower records that the bouncer accused of killing Imette St. Guillen was near the Brooklyn dump site where her body was found, according to testimony today.

Terence Li, a T-Mobile engineer, testified in Brooklyn Supreme Court that Darryl Litlejohn made a series of phone calls between 7:15 p.m. and 8 p.m. in the area in East New York where St. Guillen’s body was eventually found on February 25, 2006 — a day after St. Guillen disappeared from a SoHo bar.

Li said Littlejohn can be placed at the location where St. Guillen’s body was found because of a call he made at 7:31 p.m.

Records show that the call Littlejohn made bounced off one of the cell phone towers near the area where St. Guillen’s body was found.

Li said that the “approximate location is around [the dump site] because in two minutes it’s unlikley the user could move and come back to this location.”

Following an anonymous 911 call, St. Guillen’s nude body was found in a desolate lot — her neck bruised, mouth stuffed with a sock and taped shut and hands bound behind her back with a plastic tie.

Littlejohn, 41, who worked at The Falls bar where St. Guillen was last seen alive, has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder.

He is currently serving a sentence of 25 years to life in the kidnapping of another young woman that authorities claim was part of a sex assault spree.
